What the record says about OMA
Departures from Omaha run late more often than average — enough that a tight connection at the far end deserves a second look.
The airlines flying from here are not equally affected. SkyWest Airlines left on time 17.1 points more often than Southwest Airlines from the same airport — which is the clearest evidence available that a delayed departure is not purely the airport's fault.
